Who doesn’t love a treat gift wrapped in the most fetching way? I’m a sucker for mini boxes and I simply adore the new one Stampin’ Up! has in its Love You Always Suite on pages 10-13 of the new January-June 2021 mini. No glue required – that HAS to be a bonus, right? I […]

Bespoke Box Snow Wonder
It’s crazy isn’t it? After the year we’ve had most of it spent incarcerated at home, how does it seem possible that when the whole year seemed to drag, here we are with Christmas just a couple of days away and the end of the year is nigh! I’ll be sad to see this year’s […]
Stocking filler Snow Wonder
Do you still make up stockings for your children no matter what age they are? As they grow into adults and have families of their own, those “little” fillers become a lot more sophisticated!

Advent Calendar – Coming Home
I always make an Advent Calendar for my Countdown to Christmas Series each year. This year, I made it with the Home Together Dies. These dies can be purchased together with the Coming Home stamp set as a bundle at a 10% discount. I also used the Playful Alphabet dies with which to die cut […]
Halloween box 2: Hallows Night Magic
Where did the time go? Here we are, the last episode, episode 6 in my six week Countdown to Halloween series for 2020. Halloween isn’t as big here as it is across the pond, and yet I feel I haven’t really had sufficient time to create the myriad of Halloween projects I had in my […]
